[nfb-talk] Blindness: New Challenges for Clinton and Voters

Thu Apr 3 14:30:08 CDT 2008

LOL -- love your sense of humor -- well I have in the past tended republican 
but Bush has gotten a bit too controversial for me.  Perhaps if the dems 
decide who they want I may look that direction, although McKane says some 
things I like (except for staying in Iraq, but if things settle down there 
it might be a good time to exit.
Sorry for the diversion.  As for blindness, I know of some blind x-military 
guys on the blind programming lists, although I don't know if they were 
blinded while on duty.  It would be interesting to ask sometime if the 
off-topic police don't flame.
Cheers all.

Dear All,

Heck, we already have a President who is Blind in the White House.
He hasn't been able to see where he has been leading this Country for the
past 8 years.
He has fallen down the stairs with the War in Iraq and tripped over the rug
with his foreign and domestic policies.
He obviously can not see to read his speaches and can not pronounce
"nuclear."
He can't even "see" what he has done to the average people and economy of
this Country.
As the old adage says;" there are none as Blind as those who will not
see."He is the greatest "April Fools joke this nation has ever seen and it
has lasted for the past 8 years.  I can hardly wait to stop laughing.

This message is brought to you by the "Throw George Bush down the stairs
Committee and is endorsed by the more than 180 million people who would like
to do it."
Wait a minute?  I think the FBI is knocking on my front doorand my phone
line and DSL just went off line.
Gotta go right now, but I'll write you from South America, bye.

Message, message?  I don't gotta show you no stinking message!  Click.

David Evans
The greatest April Fools joke ever played.

  Is this an April Fools joke?
  Someday, we may have a totally blind president in the white house.
  It is certainly possible.
